Hi 'L'! I was re-reading the chapter about mid-life crisis, and it reminded me so much of my 'H' ('A'). I am glad that I read it again because it answered my question regarding talking to 'A' about his imprisonment feelings in marriage. It re-confirms my thoughts about not talking about the 'heavy stuff' with him. It re-confirms my feelings about being 'patient'. If anyone can be patient, I can! Right? Sometimes, I just want to strangle him, but I won't. It re-confirms my belief in actions speak louder than words. Goal #1: doing fun activities together sans my friend, 'M'. Goal #2: 'A' calling me up to look to do fun things together, more dinners together and movies, etc. 'L' if you find this first, I also wrote in 'Hopefulness'. Big Hug!!!! JoJo
